OK - that problem I even didn't see, because in my case, there has a quarter
note in every voice the same duration, only in one voice, there are two bars
with three quarter notes and in the other there are three bars with two quarter
notes.

And it concerns really only these 2/3 bars in the whole piece. 

I'll try to manage it overriding some time-Signatures and setting some bars
manually... That seems to be easier than the example (I even don't understand).

Hope it works.
